Comments on PCWorld Digital Magazine (US) for Android
★★★★★
Finally, fixed the download MIB problem. Thank you
★★★★★
Works Great This app works like a champ on my Motorola XYBoard tablet. A perfect way to read this magazine. The images are crisp, sharp, and easy to read. I don't know why there are so many negative reviews. The installation was easy and flawless.
★★★★★
It works well now. A must-have for any Gordon fan.
★★☆☆☆
Finally, got it to work. I installed this app about a year ago, but was unable to get it to work. Then it disappeared from the store, only to reappear recently, even though it claims the same version number. Very strange history, this app has. So I've been using the Zinio app instead. Once I found out this app was available again, I decided to give it another go. The instructions at startup said to touch the "More" button at the top right, but such a button doesn't exist. I finally found the "Account" login by pressing my tablet's "Menu" button (my tablet is a Samsung 10.1-inch Galaxy Tab 3 running Android 4.2.2). Once logged in, I can download any issue. The issue reads only in portrait mode, however, which kind of sucks since my tablet cover only tilts up the device in landscape mode. At least the font is a good size for easy reading. When flipping pages, you must sometimes swipe sideways, and sometimes upward. Swipe sideways at the wrong time, and you'll skip the rest of the article. This design is quite odd and takes some getting used to. The Zinio app, even though it doesn't have the "enhanced versions" of the magazine, doesn't impose these same caveats.
★★☆☆☆
No longer works on Nexus 7 Upgraded to 6.1 and now can't download the issues I've PAID for. Absolutely no support from PC World - just gave me a 3rd party email address to send a help request to - just like PC World they never responded.
★★☆☆☆
Unable to download magazine I've been using this app since the beginning. I'm now unable to download my unread magazines. I get a "Download Failed" message almost immediately. It makes no difference witch months edition. I deleted several older editions to make sure I have room. I have a good connection. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 running Android 4.2.2 and the app version 5.2.6 build: 8144. I have a couple of years left on my subscription. Don't tell me I can't read on my tablet anymore!
